Intraweb 9.x + en Borland C++ Builder 6

[A. Bakker]

Hallo,

I am looking for a good product to add web-functionality to a project
written in Borland 6 and it looks that IntraWeb just may have what I am
looking for!

So I downloaded the latest evaluation version (iw9.0.42.exe) from the
website and installed it without problems. However, each time when I compile
a simple project (File -> New -> Other ->VCL for the Web -> VCL for the Web
App Wizard), I get a link error:

[Linker Fatal Error] Fatal: Unable to open file "IWINDY_80_60.LIB"

There is a 'IWINDY_90_60.LIB' present in the BCB6 folder and just out of
curiosity to see whether it would work I renamed that one into
IWINDY_80_60.LIB (yes, a dirty way).

To my surprise it works: there are no link errors and the project works!
However I would like to know if anyone else have (had) this problem... I
tested prior versions (7 and 8) and these versions work fine..

Greetings,
Alex

It sounds like a build error. I"ll log it to be looked into.

Ok, thanks!

Thanks for reporting this. We have fixed it and it will be in a future
build. I'm not sure how or when it got broken.

Hi Chad, thank you for the update!

But can you tell me if I can use the current version (v9) in Builder C++
6?? Or should I wait and use an older build (v8) ?

The thing is that it SEEMS to work when I rename the distributed library in
the LIB folder. But I don't know if it is an old library or the new updated
(and misnamed) library, so this is tricky...

AFAIK it was just misnamed in the build. IW9 is supported in CBB 6.
